Bulls claim Marian Catholic graduate Tyler Ulis off waivers

The Bulls claimed Tyler Ulis off waivers on Sunday, and clarity on the Marian Catholic graduate’s future with the franchise is expected on Monday.

Ulis signed a deal that can be converted to a two-way contract, a source said. But a decision must be made by Monday on whether the conversion occurs, which would mean Ulis would split time between the Bulls and the Windy City Bulls of the G League.

It’s possible Ulis stays with the NBA team on a regular deal, which would make Ryan Arcidiacono expendable. Arcidiacono, who played for the Bulls on a two-way contract last season, has a deal that doesn’t become guaranteed until January.

Ulis, selected by the Suns in the second round with the 34th overall pick in 2016 out of Kentucky, averaged 7.6 points in 132 games, including 58 starts. But the Suns waived the 5-foot-10 guard in June.

Ulis signed a training camp deal with the Warriors, who waived him on Friday. He was a McDonald’s All-American in high school and a consensus first-team All-American in college.
